How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Do not force the door open. Unplug the unit before attempting manual release.

Steps to unlock:

  • Check for water: Look through the door glass for standing water. If present, drain via the pump filter or by running a drain-only cycle.
  • Power reset: Unplug the unit for 2–3 minutes, then reconnect and see if the lock releases.
  • Manual release (if provided): Access the area around the door lock assembly by removing the lower front panel or pulling back the gasket. Look for a manual release tab or pull cord and gently pull to unlock.
  • Inspect and replace lock: If the lock frequently sticks, replace the door lock assembly.

If the door remains locked and you cannot access the manual release, contact a professional to avoid damaging the door or cabinet.
